The Ray of Hope project coordinated a clean up with 15 volunteers from Rosemont College on Monday, January 15th. Block captain, Lynda DeSouza and Frankford Watch, Elijah Myers worked with the volunteers on this brisk Martin Luther King Day of Service to clean the area around the Arrott Street terminal.

Bags of trash and other items were collected and left for city pick up from this MLK Day of service project.
Tuesday, January 16th, will be the next Northwood Civic Association meeting at Simpson Recreation Center, 1010 Arrott Street at 7:00 PM.
The owner of a property on Northwood Street, adjacent to the park, will be presenting and seeking neighbors support to convert a property to a multifamily tri-plex. Please come out to this important meeting and ask questions and be informed before making a decision.
The Civic Association will represent the neighbors vote at zoning and not our own opinion.
Sometimes we’re so busy we can’t see the road,
when we keep looking down at our shoes.
When is the last time you looked up to the sky,
to see the clouds as they pass by.
When was the last time you looked at the stars and see how bright they really are?
How about the moon when it turns bright bright orange.
Sometimes we need to stop looking down at our shoes and look up and see the flowers as they bloom.
And maybe a rainbow to lighten the load and maybe a song for the long walk home.
The shocking truth is you have a lot to lose when you keep looking down at your shoes.
HAPPY MLK DAY
